    Hi again Gemma...
    I know you're looking for feedback, so here's my $.02, fwiw...

    What I like:
    Nice even exposure
    Pano aspect
    Balanced geometry between sky/water/land
    Leading perspective
    Looks peaceful and inviting

    What could be better:
    Lighting - flat lighting makes for even exposures, but lacks "drama" - especially in a sparse scene like this.
    Focal Point - the location is scenic but sparse... the detail on the cliffs/structures is far away....the beach surface lacks any true point-of-interest... the sky is nice, but very subdued.
    Personally, I have difficulty capturing scenes like this, such that it grabs a viewer - minimalism is harder than it looks. deal.gif

    HTH.... again, best of luck!

    Thanks, Eric, your comments are appreciated.

    This picture was taken after sunset so the ambient light was fading and a feeling of tranquility is precisely what I wanted the photograph to convey.
